Only save 300 a year on gas

i wouldn't be proud of it either user

mpg*

derp

how sad do you have to be to take pride in a car

not like you built it at the factory or engineered any of the parts

>giving a fuck about mpg's when buying a "muscle car"

What has this world come to?

youtube.com/watch?v=e3LxQJ6xvyA

If you even need to consider a V6 then a muscle car is not for you.

I get 20 if I'm in a flat area, but where I live currently has a lot of hills.

>cylinders

pleb

you keep beating around the bush, admit what you have. Why buy something you aren't proud of?

Yah modern v6s and v8s are a lot more efficient when you want to be. That's why the range is so wide between city and highway mpgs. If you go balls to the wall you'll get like 16 mpgs while if you drive normally you'll get decent mpgs. Good versatility

yeah when I walk into the store I get filled with a massive sense of pride when I purchase some food or something

just lol

I dont have the insecurity issues that are plaguing you to need to buy a car as an ego boost or whatever

its also more fun to not tell anything I mean how many old Mazda/Ford turbo cars are there out there

Modern V8's are pretty efficient, but you still pay a fuckload more for the car and the insurance.

you realize the engine burns oil by design right? it is supposed to "waste" oil

it's not about ego i'm on this board because i like cars, you probably call out others for "compensating" because they buy nice cars to enjoy. Really you might have a nice car who knows, fact of the matter is you are dumb enough to say "V8's are boring to drive" so i find it hard to believe you even know or care much about cars

no my car isnt nice by any metric maybe when it came out 27 years ago and not abused by 8 owners

its just a car unless you engineered it or built it there is no reason to take pride in it

Id say I have above average knowledge of cars and have worked on a handful but they arent anything special

cant help it if your typical V8s are boring to drive

And there it is, you drive a 27 year old shit box, and think it's better than all v8 cars. Can it user, you're just one stage above bus riding.

and there it is

youre so insecure you assume things and cant even pay attention to the post

sad

Wow what an embarrassing position. Hope you earn some more money some day user and can become successful - I can't imagine how bad things must be that would cause you to rationalize away people being proud of their cars.

>only save 300 a year on gas

hahahahahahahahahah

NO

i own a vee ate truck and 3 4 banger cars.

the vee ate cost me 70$ every 2 weeks to drive when i used it as my daily where as its 20$ every 2 weeks in my brap machine now

>buying a muscle car
>concerned about engine being "noisy and loud"

>its just a car unless you engineered it or built it there is no reason to take pride in it
>Id say I have above average knowledge of cars and have worked on a handful but they arent anything special
if this were true you would understand that keeping a car pristine inside and out despite it's age requires alot of work. It's rewarding when it's an old car (in your case) but maybe you have it in shit condition rather than making it LIKE NEW with nice paint and interior
>cant help it if your typical V8s are boring to drive
what's a typical V8?

if youre proud of that you must be a very pathetic person with nothing worth a damn in your life

you even have to take pride in others work

not him, but stop being a fag and give credit where it's due. He obviously maintains it well and has a great healthy paint despite it's age which is something to be proud of

>the vee ate cost me 70$ every 2 weeks to drive

My GMT800 Suburban costs me $60 a week driven daily. iktf

Hate to break it to you user but if you can't take pride in things you worked for and earned and share that with other people, you're the pathetic person with nothing worth a damn. I think you're so deep in some kind of psychological justification for your jealousy at other people that you really believe that enthusiast interest and pride in cars is something to be ashamed of - all because you can't afford it yourself. Narcissists please go

Thanks captain autism.

go fuck yourself you little shit.

Nothing wrong with taking pride in your car , it doesnt even matter what it is as long as you like it.

hell i take pride in keeping my beat up truck on the road

When I drove a Ford Escort I would say the same shit you do. Blah blah it's just a car to get from point A to point B. Now that I drive a Firebird, not even new or mint, I don't feel pride but I sure as hell smile when I am walking to my car. It's fun making passengers shit their pants when I gun the throttle. Bitter people never prosper man, get a car you actually like.

American crossplane v8s

and nah its just dumping money into an old piece of shit when you could get something better at that point

people can take pride in being stupid I guess

whatever stops them from necking themselves eh

sad life when all your pride stems from others work

That's not even my car, that's a $5,000 Crown Vic.

>sad life when all your pride stems from others work

This is called sour grapes

Post you are car

>noisy and loud
Inherent flaw to the Camaro. Terrible noice insulation, it's like you're constantly driving with a window down.

You're basically just reiterating his initial point. It's not about having a car you're """Proud""" of, it's about having a car that's fun.

lol I dont care every car is just a car

the car I have now I like more than anything else Ive driven

sorry I dont have you guys autism to think of them as anything else

that would imply I want what you have

maybe one day you will become something but I doubt it

>waaaaaah mommy car too loud!!!!!1

>maybe one day you will become something but I doubt it

Jesus the narcissistic delusion is strong with this guy

You're the one coming into the thread saying no one deserves to be proud of their cars because they didn't assemble/design them or some arbitrary autistic standard you came up with. You're not fooling anyone when you lie saying you're happy with your 27 year old shitbox LOL

Kek

>y-you can't possibly be having fun with your car!!1!

Please stop projecting your own hatred of cars onto others user.

dang now hes being a hypocrite and saying I cant be happy with my car

what a fgt

you motherfuckers dont know shit about noise until you drive a 90 ford truck down a mountain pass and the chrome trim around the windshield comes loose making the most obnoxious ass whistling sound that you cant even drown out with a stereo.

as soon as i had the chance i hit a rest stop and beat the shit out of it with a hammer

It's obnoxiously badly insulated. Going 70 mph generates wind noise like 120 mph in some other cars.

You could never get what I have, pleb.

a false sense of superiority and bad taste is easy to come by

kek

Pubic hair is not, at least in your case.

weird

your mom said my hairs were tickling her nose last night

My mom is 72, I'm surprised she felt anything at all you sick fuck. Damn that's an age gap of 59 years.

...

keep talking that way and Ill be your temporary stepdad again soon

grandmas are milfs too you prick

>he doesnt have over 400 newton meters of torque

TOPKEK!

Then they add 200lbs of sound deadening then you fucking complain that it's "TOOO PIGFAT"

Go buy a old person sedan if you wan't to drive a cloud you faggot. Leave the "sports cars" for the men.

>heh your cars aren't any better than mine because lol who would work hard to put money into something that is undeniably better and more fun in every way than my shitbox

>no uppercase letters
>no punctuation
>smacks of low self-worth

You type exactly like this autistic NEET asian pothead I know, which means you definitely need to get your t-levels checked and get behind the wheel of a fun car for a week and un-cuck your outlook.

>UUHHHMM I KNOW A DUMMY JUST LIKE YOU

Good post m8.

Typing in all lowercase with no punctuation is a confirmed warning sign for fucked up testosterone levels, ask any doctor.

Interdasting...

My 2014 5.3l 4wd half ton truck averages 20mpg. Do you drive an older car?

thats a gen 5 you retard. they only had a v6 and 3 v8s as options

Why did any of you idiots respond to this? Don't feed the trolls and rhey will go away eventually.

if the trolls went away Veeky Forums would get maybe 5 posts every hour

Because when you beat an American V8 in a drag race in a 25+ year old japanese 4 banger you know the other guy feels nothing but shame.
